    I remember how excited I was when I finally got an invite code. Now happily gmail-free for 2 years.

    Google Maps and YouTube I can’t avoid but otherwise ungoogling successfully.

      btw you can use freetube or libretube for youtube, and use an openstreetmaps clientt to replace google maps

        What I am really looking for is beyond our email, it’s proper integration between calendar, contacts, and map.

        I want to be able to share calendars with my family, and link contacts from certain events (birthdays, meetings, and also just meet-ups). I want those contact’s addresses to be available as navigation destinations in the mapping app. I want to be able to bookmark (“star”) map locations.

          The first two are kinda achievable with Nextcloud and davx. Not rock solid but for me it works well enough, the part about the map seems more tricky on first glance

      I’m mostly over on ProtonMail but I don’t know if I’ll ever be comfortable fully deleting my Gmail :/

      I wish osm+ was as good as maps. It’s so close and I’ll still use it for in town destinations.

        Have you given a try to Organic Maps ? It is more friendly than OSMAnd Although, it still lacks a better search bar I think.

        I use proton mail but otherwise I would probably stick with the default iOS.

        I self-host caldav with radicale and use native Debian/ios calendar apps. Immich to replace Google photos was especially satisfying.
